Case Study: Socialvest achieves a virtual distributed development office and faster releases with DeskAway

Socialvest - Customer Case Study

SocialVest (SocialVest Ventures, LLC) is a shopping platform that channels everyday purchases into social impact. Charles Campbell, Director of Technology, needed to coordinate a geographically dispersed development team across multiple time zones, manage weekly releases and sprints, and replace a fragile mix of email and spreadsheets that made scheduling, priorities and documentation difficult.

By using DeskAway for weekly task lists, priority ordering, document storage and DeskMail, the team established a virtual office that streamlined task assignment, reduced email overload and sped onboarding. DeskAway made tight deadlines—such as a rapid site redesign sprint—easier to schedule and complete, while enabling SocialVest to tap global talent, lower operating costs and improve development efficiency.
